Home Daycares in Valley Stream

Experience is so important when working with young people! Growing up in a blended family with lots of siblings and cousins, I’ve been surrounded by children of all ages since I was very young, and now have two kids of my own. Caring for children is truly like a second nature to me and I just cannot imagine doing anything else! My home daycare is a place where kids feel comfortable enough to be themselves and ask for what they need. We are a family, one that learns and grows together. The bonds that we build as the days go by are so special, and every child and family I work with means so much to me.

Daycare programs are so essential for working parents I met so many parents who were in desperate need of quality care for their children so they could work to support their families. In fact, I was one of those parents! It was difficult to find coverage for my three girls with my non-traditional schedule, and I want to offer help to others who find themselves in that same position. I am so happy to be able to open my home to children and support families in my community at the same time.

Children and parents love Ms. Daniel’s daycare for its small-scale, personal feel. Fully licensed by the state, her program focuses on infants and toddlers, and the mixed-age range helps children learn to socialize in a small group setting. Parents often prefer home daycare when looking for options that are closer to home, where they can develop a long-term relationship with the provider. Many come to see the provider as an extension of the family, leaning on them for advice on all sorts of parenting questions.

Caring for kids is second nature to me – I helped raise my sibling, babysat for families in my neighborhood, and worked at my aunt’s family childcare program. All those experiences made me realize how to relate to kids, and how much I enjoyed caring for them! The thing I love most about what I do is building young children up and boosting their self-esteem through positive attention and care. When children feel love for themselves, enough to be who they are – that is a beautiful thing, and my daycare is a way for me to encourage that.
